About this listen

From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Lexi Blake comes a new story in her Masters and Mercenaries series…

The Bodyguard

Nate Carter left Australia's elite SASR unit after a tragic accident. Shattered by the experience, he thought taking a job in the States might be a good way to start over. His father's former employer, McKay-Taggart, has a position for him in the bodyguard unit. He never imagined himself risking his life for celebrities and the wealthy, but it will do for now. It will also give him a chance to reconnect with old friends, including the girl who'd been like a little sis to him ten years before.

These days, however, his feelings for Daisy O'Donnell are anything but brotherly.

The Bombshell

Daisy O'Donnell is a girl on a mission, and it does not include falling for one of her brother's best friends. She has plans, and while chaos always seems to follow her, she's determined to see this through.

Daisy finds herself in need of a bodyguard when a job goes terribly wrong. She's sure her dad will find someone suitable, but she didn't expect a big, gloriously masculine Aussie to show up ready to take a bullet for her. Maybe spending some time with Nate Carter won't be so bad after all.

An explosive match

Thrown together by danger, Nate and Daisy can't resist the insane chemistry between them. When his past and her present collide, they must decide if they can hold it together or go their separate ways forever.

Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new listeners, it's an introduction to an author's world. For fans, it's a bonus book in the author's series.

Daisy was the sun in the sky for him.

I swear that each and every time I read a new Lexi Blake book, I fall in love with her talent and way with words even more than I thought possible. Nate and Daisy's story is full of heat, heart and humour - just the way I like it - but these two have a great love story that started with Daisy's crush on Nate when they were younger, continues at a masquerade party at The Hideout, and truly begins in Sanctum like so many couples from the M&M series. This story had be laughing out loud at Daisy's antics one minute and almost sobbing the next as we realise why she acts the way she does. The connection between Daisy's and Nate's parents is so good and I was thrilled that these two became a couple because it brings Avery, Liam, Stephanie and Brody’s story full circle - and this is beautiful.

Ryan West - yet again - does an amazing job as the narrator, bringing all my favourite characters to life. And Ryan is one of the only non-Australian narrators who does an Aussie accent that I don't hate (so that is a big plus!). Plus anytime Ryan West does an Irish accent I totally swoon. Ryan is the M&M world and this is another fine example.

"I’m here today because of Avery O’Donnell’s boundless love."
